Well that's pretty shitty

Especially given the reasons in the article

It sucks but given the reasons they listed it makes sense. There's no mechanism to have someone expelled from the league for being a bigot, and it became a form of protest against LGBT rights and acceptance to refuse to wear the jersey. It sadly winds up undermining the entire purpose of those events.
